Demystifying Cloud Computing and Big Data for Small and Midsize Businesses

Cloud computing and big data are no longer just buzz words, they are driving business transformation even for small and midsize businesses. By bringing together business applications and familiar productivity tools, the Microsoft cloud offers the insights you need to better understand your customers and drive your success.

Intelligence as an advantage. Everything around us is measured, effectively making every business now a data-driven one. How can that be used to your advantage? Intelligent business solutions combine people, data, systems, and processes for a real-time view of what’s going on. Watching these data shifts leads to more successful decision-making, such as where and how to engage customers and which services to offer.

Clear view of business performance.Microsoft Dynamics and the Microsoft Cloud bring together operational power and customer insights to give you a holistic view of the data that makes up your business and your customer decisions. With that 360-degree view, you can identify time and cost savings, areas for performance boosts, and manual processes that can be automated for efficiency.

Transforming your business with data. Health food manufacturer and distributor, Bounce Foods', rapid pace of growth was causing some business challenges and turned to Microsoft to deliver a complete solution for their business to keep track of processes, resources, and information that supports great customer service. Now questions are answered faster, a real-time view of their inventory reduces out-of-stocks, and internal processes are much more efficient.
